You do not need to have played any previous Gamebook Adventures titles in order to play this.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Cruelly taken from your homeland of Orlandes, you find yourself in a far off land at the mercy of a gladiatorial arena. Somehow trying to find a way to escape overseas, can you also unravel a potentially dangerous mystery that puts two nations on the brink of war?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;quot;Slaves of Rema is epic in scope, but doesn't lose sight of the plight of your character. It brings the twists and turns at a satisfying pace, and all of this is supported by the wonderful art we have come to expect from Tin Man Games.&amp;quot; - Touch Gaming Magazine&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;quot;I can't help but feel a certain nostalgia for these four interactive books. Without noticing it, I got sucked into the first one over the Christmas holiday and went back to the previous pages and cheat reading different plots.&amp;quot; - App Freak&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&#8232;&#8232;What is a Gamebook Adventure?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Gamebook Adventures is brought together through the efforts of passionate and avid gamebook enthusiasts.

Along with a realistic dice-based battle system to fight creatures, a great story and beautiful artwork, Revenant Rising will give you many hours of gamebook adventuring! Please note that you do not need to have played any of the previous gamebooks in order to play this.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;quot;The mighty city of Falavia, the military backbone of Orlandes, is under attack from an army lead by a man claiming to be a God. How did this come to pass you ask yourself? You're sure it all started as some innocent adventure in search of treasure but somehow it turned into a nightmare. Also, why are people staring at you strangely? It&amp;rsquo;s not as if you look like you've recently been brought back from the dead or something. Oh yes, that's right. You remember now... &amp;quot;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;lrm;&amp;quot;Arguably the best of the Gamebook Adventure series released so far by Tin Man Games, Revenant Rising combines polished gameplay mechanics with an original storyline, flinging you between the world of the living and the dead and back again.&amp;quot; - Touch My Apps&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;quot;My favourite examples so far though are Gamebook Adventures, a series of lovingly crafted and extremely well-written interactive fantasy novels. It's surprisingly engrossing stuff, the economically written narrative packing in masses of detail, while rattling out a pacy, involving story.&amp;quot; - The Guardian&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;quot;The true gem, and the reason these are next iteration choose your own adventure books, is the dice component in the overall story.&amp;quot; - 148Apps&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&#8232;&#8232;What is a Gamebook Adventure?&lt;br&gt;Gamebook Adventures is brought together through the efforts of passionate and avid gamebook enthusiasts.
